We describe a case of coronary stenting in which accidental detachment of the Palmaz-Schatr stent induced thrombotic occlusion of the coronary artery. This case suggests that careful consideration of the risk involving coronary occlusion is mandatory on d e ciding the therapeutic strategy of the cas

A 64-year-old patient with silent myocardial ischemia after anterior myocardial infarction was treated with directional coronary atherectomy, balloon angioplasty, and placement of Palmaz-Schatz stent. An unexpanded Palmaz-Schatz stent was retained in the left main coronary artery and was treated suc
We performed a lesion matched comparison of AVE Microstent and Palmaz-Schatz stent implants with 6 month follow-up angiography to compare the occurrence of restenosis. Thirty-three pairs of lesions were matched for lesion location, ACC/AHA lesion type, reference diameter, lesion length, and angiogra
Transradial coronary stenting has been associated with a low frequency of vascular complications and shortened hospital length of stay, but few reports of safety and feasibility are available. To determine the safety and efficacy of transradial coronary stenting, our initial experience in 38 patient
